Cleanliness. Safety. Productivity. Cost efficiency. Quality.
These are the principles and ideals of 5S, a program that AboitizPower team members are encouraged to practice as part of driving operations toward world-class status and in support of the 1AP goal.
Generation Group EVP and COO Manny Rubio enjoined everyone to consistently observe 5S to help the organization achieve its objectives. “High 5S encourages team members to give a high five to recognize and commend an individual for achieving the principles and ideals of 5S. The principles are also aligned with the Aboitiz core values of teamwork and responsibility,” he said.
The program was first implemented by the AP Generation business units in 2014. To ensure the delivery of quality work output this year, all business units are expected to sustain and continue achieving High 5S milestones. The milestones include on-the-spot monthly and quarterly 5S audits. Audit scores are reported to AP Corporate every quarter. With each performance improvement, AboitizPower becomes closer to its goal of attaining world-class operations by 2018.
